How to Enable TailwindCSS Intellisense for Specific Dictionaries in VSCode

Are you looking to enhance your development workflow with TailwindCSS but struggling to see Intellisense tips in your specific styled dictionaries? If you're using Visual Studio Code (VSCode) and have your Tailwind classes organized into dictionaries, you might have noticed that by default, the Intellisense doesn’t work as expected. In this guide, we will uncover a simple yet effective solution to tailor the Intellisense experience just for the dictionaries you want.

The Problem

When storing TailwindCSS classes in dictionaries in your React application, for example:

You might find that Intellisense tips do not show up within these string values. Although you can adjust the settings in the TailwindCSS Intellisense extension to enable tips in strings, there is a catch: these tips appear in every string across all dictionaries, not just your desired ones.

A Simple Solution

Just when you think you have to accept the limitations, there’s an easy tweak that allows you to focus the Intellisense tips solely in designated dictionaries. Here’s how to do it:

Step-by-Step Guide

Open VSCode Settings: Access your settings for the TailwindCSS Intellisense extension.

Locate the classAttributes Key: You need to modify the tailwindCSS.classAttributes setting.

Add Your Dictionary Name: Input the name of your dictionary. In this case, you want to have it configured specifically for styles. The JSON setting will look like this:

What This Change Does

By adding "styles" to the classAttributes array, VSCode will now recognize that any dictionary named styles should display TailwindCSS Intellisense tips. This means:

Tailwind Intellisense now works flawlessly in your specified dictionary!

No unwanted tips appear in other dictionaries, allowing for a cleaner and more focused coding experience.

Conclusion

Configuring TailwindCSS Intellisense in VSCode to show tips only within specific dictionaries can significantly streamline your workflow and reduce potential distractions from irrelevant tips. With just a small modification to your settings, you can enjoy targeted assistance while coding. Now your styles dictionary can truly enhance your development process without unnecessary clutter. Happy coding!
